Libertine Dream Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 With it looking likely that Cardiif away will be moved due to FA Cup 4th round and dependent on when its moved to, 5 of our next 7 games are at home. The two away games are Bristol City and Peterborough. Huddersfield Bristol City Boro Wolves Peterborough Blackburn Charlton We need to pick up a large amount of points from these games if we are serious about challenging for autos and hopefully getting business done early will strengthen us further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxyPV Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 We'll win them all, starting a Reading-like push that will win the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Year Of The Fox Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 There is no reason why we can't win every single of those. I don't think for a minute we will. I want 15 points from these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two away games are Bristol City and Peterborough. Huddersfield Bristol City Boro Wolves Peterborough Blackburn Charlton We need to pick up a large amount of points from these games if we are serious about challenging for autos and hopefully getting business done early will strengthen us further I said at the start of the season that 17 home wins this season would see us guaranteed a play off place and possibly automatic promotion. Our saving grace the last couple of seasons has been our strong home form and we started extremely strongly this season. Tailed off a bit recently but no better time than now to start picking up some wins. The only real game there that could faze us would be Middlesbrough... this really is make or break time. If we get a minimum of 16 points out of that it sets us up very nicely for a much tougher run in after! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry - LCFC Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Indeed, plenty of points available there against some of the weaker opposition in the league. Twenty-one points isn't beyond us IMO - that's very ambitious of course but I'd say we're favourites for every one of those games. I know that sounds incredibly arrogant but I think I'm right in making that assertion, in each game we're surely going to be the team who is more likely to win.

THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 If we were to win all of those I games I would happily pick the scabs off everyone's fanneh, store them up in a jar, then fill the jar with water and neck them. Won't happen, but I can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Looking at that I think it's a good set of fixtures, Middlesbrough at home will be key but we usually do well against them, while luckily the Wolves and Blackburn games will be at home as well, so there is more of a chance that we will pick up 9 points...hopefully. Our away games are winnable as well, a few more quality signings will certainly stand us in good stead, for another good run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 Most of those games look winnable, but we've said that too many times before. A team looking at promotion should be aiming to negotiate these seven matches unbeaten, a big ask but doable in my opinion. Huddersfield (H) Outplayed them back in October, they're nothing particularly special. 3pts Bristol City (A) We don't have a great record against these, I think we were the only side they 'did the double' over last season. They aren't bottom for no reason though. 3pts Middlesbrough (H) That win against them back at the Riverside doesn't half look good now. They could be tougher this time. 1pt Wolves (H) Stale Solbakken is lucky to still be in a job with some of their results this season. Should be looking to win this one. 3pts Peterborough (A) Wins at Cardiff and Wolves as well as our mediocre record there make this a fixture not to be underestimated. 1pt Blackburn (H) These have gone backwards dramatically since their fortuitous win over us earlier in the season. 3pts Charlton (H) Kermorgant will be back for this one and WILL score. I have a feeling this'll be like Barnsley for some reason. 1pt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 31 December 2012 Share Posted 31 December 2012 16 points would be fantastic from those 7 games In other words we need to average just better than 2 points a game (automatic promotion form) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope so but this is Niges third go on the transfers since his return, why will the guys he signs now be any better than the last lot? Woods is a one in four striker at this level so he is going to need to be at his very best to make an impact, although he has had a good run at Millwall so let's hope. Bet Waggy and Vardy are over the moon at his signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
